What happens here
The installer applies a bead of construction adhesive along the top horizontal edge of the installed vertical side panel. This bead will serve as the bonding agent for the main horizontal countertop slab that will be placed on top. After application, he again uses a white cloth to wipe away any adhesive that might have dripped or squeezed out, ensuring the surface remains clean for the subsequent installation.
Goal: Create a strong and ready surface for the main countertop slab
Tools and materials
- Caulk gun — Applying the construction adhesive/sealant
